After doing some research, Refinery 29 has realized that although the 67% of Americans are plus size, the images we only see them in about 2% of the images released in the media.

Sterling K. Brown, and American Horror Story: Freak Show's Chrissy Metz - it's a must see! But that's not what this is about...
